Weekly Wrap Up (Jan. 12 - Jan. 18)


Who's on holidays? Me :D Who has nothing really to do on holidays? Me :(.

What should I do on my 2 weeks off? I should do some reading :read: . Maybe some cleaning :no: . I'm bored already :P 

What do you all think I should do? I want to fly down to the states and visit Krista but she has a very, very, very long list on how she will kill me if I ever show up :o. We were discussing why I think she can get a side by side for the family, and I said how else will she get my body out to the back forty and she said with the recent cold, she'd just get the dogs to drag my body out there 😢 

No flying to see Krista. 

Just as a PSA, in case you have been having some issues on site, we have been having some undesirable acts of failed attempts being tried to penetrate our servers. Rather than let them in and take up residence, @Myr has employed a new security suite to keep us and everything on site safe. Sort of like a giant condom surrounding GA ;). There are hiccups though, so make sure you read the grey bar at the top and see that we would like you to post with a URL and what you are trying to do in the Help topic. Myr has been superfast in getting things fixed, but even he needs to sleep. Please have patience if he doesn't answer you right away!

Now what has happened in the GA News Blog the past week.

Monday, Tim, our fearless leader of the Site Review Team went and compiled a list of all the stories reviewed in 2024. Check them out!

Tuesday, it was a scary day :o Myr did a Deep Dive into the Horror Genre. Too bad I'm not that proficient in putting into words what Val sees in the mirror when she first wakes up in the morning :gikkle: I'd clean up this genre ;):

Thursday, our favourite Admin, Val 0:), was by with the rules and regs, or if you want the guidelines for our yearly Anthology:

 

Finally on Friday, our favourite Admin, Val 0:), was back again with a couple of prompts to get you in the mood for a creature feature:

 

 

If you were thinking I would forget the Words of the Day, I didn't 😜.

reliability, outrageous, marble, shrewish, prude, exhausted, lassitude

Oh yeah, and if Steve is looking for something to do, he can always finish his prompt story :whistle:  

He has a backlog of Krista chores he's not done. :D Mostly because I've yet to tell him, but I'll rectify that soon. And yeah, he should finish that prompt. But, I can't tell him that, so glad you remembered to. :)

I'm surprised you haven't tried to use the laser beams that @Myr uses to destroy those invasive bots on Steve.  I good zap might change his attitude and motivate him to do the backlog of work he seems to be avoiding.  😁
